As I read it, that simply means you can’t advertise for those specific traits. I can choose anyone I like, and base that choice on any trait I want. There’s no reason for anyone to know why I chose that person.

RenParticipant[quote=Rustico]As I was walking back to my office to look at this thread, I expected that mudslinging would have returned to the thread. Bingo.[/quote]
Normally I’m totally with you on the mud slinging, and I rarely sling it myself – only when fired upon, or when someone says something so inane that I lose control of my typing fingers – e.g.,
[quote=paramount]Homosexuality is a behavior, not an eye or hair color.[/quote]
Those people don’t think it’s possible for someone to be innately attracted to the same gender, but not because they have any evidence for it – it’s a taught prejudice like any other. Gays must be deluding themselves, or are mentally damaged in some way. In some cases that’s true, but what about the majority who had completely normal childhoods?
Here on Earth, what little evidence we have points to the brain’s structure having the biggest influence. Their attraction to the same gender is just as powerful as that of a heterosexual to the opposite gender, most weren’t brainwashed or damaged, and they have no more desire to change than I do to become gay.
All that said, I actually agree with those who think there are more important things to teach in our schools.

RenParticipantWhenever I read of a study of gay vs non-gay physiology – and there have been several – there is usually compelling evidence (if not outright proof) which indicates that the vast majority of gay people are born that way. Specific areas of the gay brain are sized and “wired” like the opposite gender’s, not like the straight version of their own gender.

In my mind it’s sort of like evolution. Sure, it’s still just a theory, but if you don’t “believe” in it, you’re most likely an idiot (or choosing to remain ignorant, which is the same thing).
